Role
We at FORMM accompanied our client from the very beginning, from choosing the right plot of land all the way to the end of the construction cycle.
Highlights
La Plazola: A unique park feature to El Sabino, no other building of its size has something similar. By protecting the existing trees we managed to create a park within the buildings second story.
Las Cartelas: Provding both a dynamic facade and an energy efficient benefit. The "cartelas" are a system of steel decorative screens on rails that each user can move to their liking, this not only makes the building have a different facade every time you look, but helps those south facing apartments better combat the intense meridian sun.
Lots of Green: Throughout the project, sustainability and nature were top priority. We managed to keep 4 different park areas within the building. Something unheard of for a building its size.
